Fandom High Welcome Picnic, Front Lawn of the School, All Day: Part III

[bigdamnprincipal]

Amazingly enough, this part of the lawn looked pretty clear. For the moment, at least.

[Welcome to the third post, for more general chatting. This part of the picnic is going on at the same time as the previous two posts.

"Yeah, same here," he said. "Is there anything to fly here?"

"There's a transport pod," she said. "No weaponry, short range passenger ship, not much to see. I think mostly it's just the simulator."

"Boring," Lee groused. "Seriously, that's it? This school gets attacked and has nothing to fly?"

"Most of the attacks happen on the ground. A lot of hand-to-hand and weaponry," she said.

"Wouldn't air attack just be more helpful?"

"Depends on what it is," Jaina said. "Tactically an air attack might be overkill if it's something that can be easily fought from the ground, and there's more of a chance of innocent bystanders getting hurt, especially the way people flock to fight things. And the island's not very big, the potential for collateral damage is too big. There are plenty of people who can handle themselves in that sort of fight, but we don't have the ships or number of pilots it would take to manage that."

Lee? Kind of staring.

"The fact that you know so much about island attacks means you either study them closely or there's enough to be that familiar with them."

"I've only been through one attack here," she said. "But I have some experience in battle. And I listen as closely as possible to my CO's."

"Right." He still never thought he'd hear someone talk like she just had in terms of defending a school. "Gonna take some getting used to."
